Stage 8 - August 9: Bad Krozingen - Karlsruhe, 172.1 km
Brown on a roll, as Voigt triumphs at home
By Jeff Jones
|
Graeme Brown (Rabobank) has sprinted to his second stage win of the Deutschland Tour, winning the final leg in Karlsruhe ahead of Erik Zabel (Team Milram) and Danilo Napolitano (Lampre-Fondital). As expected, the stage finished in a bunch sprint, with Brown showing superior speed again. Tour leader Jens Voigt (CSC) finished in the same time as Brown in 106th position, and carried home the final overall victory in his national tour.
"It has of course been a fantastic race for me, where everything has worked out brilliantly," said Voigt to team-csc.com. "I finished the Tour de France in great shape, and in the period in between then and here in the Deutschland Tour I did some criteriums to keep me going. I stayed serious and focused instead of partying. I've really just made sure I kept focus on this particular race, because I badly wanted to do well in front of my home crowd. It's always fun to win a race in Germany and especially a big one like this.
"It's a good race for me. There are many of the Tour de France riders who didn't do this one, and I am able to manage those seven or eight-kilometre climbs with lots of will power and motivation. It's much worse in the races where we have to climb 30 kilometres or so.

"I was aiming for something like the top-five, top-six or maybe just the top-ten, but it's definitely been a nice little surprise that I was able to go this fast. It's more fun than when you expect a lot without being able to deliver. I would also like to give credit to the team, because I think they have done some fantastic work. We've had a good mix of riders, some who are good on flat stretches and some who are good in the mountains," Voigt concluded.
In the other classifications, Erik Zabel took home the points jersey; Sebastian Lang (Gerolsteiner) the mountains, even though he finished on the same points as Andrey Kashechkin; Vladimir Gusev (Discovery Channel) the young rider, and Gerolsteiner the teams.
How it unfolded
|
The final stage was held over a fairly flat parcours between Bad Krozingen and Karlsruhe, with just one small climb to overcome. 162 riders started the last stage at 12:30, and the pace was on straight away. Numerous attacks went in the opening kilometres, but it took until km 24 before Norwegian Mads Kaggestad (Credit Agricole) was able to get clear. He took Lloyd Mondory (AG2R) and the ever-aggressive Pascal Hungerbühler (Vorarlberg) with him, and the three quickly found a rhythm.
With Hungerbühler the best placed on GC at 22 minutes, the peloton let the breakaway go. At the first sprint at Mahlberg (km 48), it was Kaggestad before Hungerbühler and Mondory with the peloton at four minutes. 10 km later, Hungerbühler took the mountain points at Burgbühl ahead of Mondory and Kaggestad, which meant that Sebastian Lang had effectively sewn up the mountains jersey, as there were no more points on offer.
The gap grew to six minutes after 68 km, before Lampre-Fondital and Wiesenhof decided that that was enough and positioned their riders at the head of the peloton to chase. At the second sprint in Offenburg (km 76.4), Mondory was first ahead of Kaggestad and Hungerbühler, and by this stage, Milram and then Rabobank joined the chase in the bunch.
Kaggestad took a money sprint in Appenweiler as the break's gap fell to under five minutes, and a bunch sprint started to look extremely likely. After 100 km, it was only 3'45, and the chase relented a little as there were still 72 km to go. The gap went up to 4'15 and came down to 3'00 by the last sprint of the day at Rastatt (km 126), won by Mondory from Kaggestad and Hungerbühler
Kaggestad was the first to give up at 20 km to go, when the peloton was just 20 seconds behind. The two others were caught in Karlsruhe with 15 km to go, shortly before the first passage of the line. The attacks started in the finale, with Astana and Cofidis being aggressive, but the sprinters teams had a lock on the race, and kept the tempo high enough to discourage any move.
T-Mobile was doing the bulk of the work in front, before Lampre and AG2R took over. Prologue winner Vladimir Gusev tried an attack just before the kilometre to go mark, but didn't last long, and Milram led it out for Zabel, despite a spoiler move by Sven Teutenberg (Vorarlberg). Zabel was well placed, but Brown came around him for another big win - his second on European soil.
